Callister Park

Callister Park is a public park in Vancouver that spans multiple city blocks with open lawns, flowering cherry trees, and seating areas throughout. Well-maintained pathways connect different sections of the green space for easy movement.

The park was established in 1921 and originally named after a local sports enthusiast who acquired the land. A fire in 1934 destroyed structures, but the site was restored and renamed in 1942.

The park served as home to local soccer teams that drew crowds from across the region. The open fields remain a gathering place for sports activities and neighborhood events.

The park is accessible from multiple entry points and features wide pathways suitable for walking, jogging, or relaxing. Shaded areas from trees provide relief during warm days.

The park once hosted matches featuring international soccer teams that traveled to play here. The field layout still reflects this competitive sporting past.
